In the midst of a failed drug deal, Raven and his friend stumble upon a kidnapped girl, who turns out to be the second princess to the throne. This chance meeting thrusts the criminal Raven into the dangerous world. How will this meeting impact the life of a criminal like Raven?
"Edward!" Lifting him up, I see a huge orange crystal stuck in his chest. Trying to grab it with my hand, I get shocked. Yelling out, Alice tells me to let her try, one of her hands tries to grab it, but fails to get even close, it's as if an invisible field was around the crystal.
"Edward! Can you hear me? we're gonna get that out of you okay?" Not getting a response, I hear rushed footsteps in the hallway. Thinking that it's the assassin again, I pull out my gun only to see a running Amber.
"Amber? What are you doing here?!" Lowering my pistol, she smiles. "You're alive!"
Confused I look around, "Of course I'm alive? If I'd be dead I wouldn't be standing here now would I?" Turnign back to Edward, Amber looks in horror at the large orange crystal. "That's-"
Grabbing Amber by the shoulders, I yell. "You know what that is?!" Nodding her head, I yell at her to say it then! Putting her hand on my shoulder, Alice tells me to calm down.
"Calm down?! Do you see this?! I saw him eat 50. Calbiar rounds for breakfast! But now he's bleeding out on the ground! How am I supposed to be calm?!"
*Slap* "Get it together! We need the logical Raven! And not this, mess of man!"
Taking deep breaths, I finally calm down. "I'm sorry, so Amber, can you please tell me what this is?" Walking over, she tries to reach for the crystal. "It's a depressing stone, but I've never seen one this big."
"A suppressing stone?" Nodding her head she tells me that it's used to train your control over Sephs Aka magic. But in such a huge amount it can completely shut one's systems down.
"Then we have to get it out!" Putting her hand on my shoulder again, Alice says. "We do, but we don't know how. So can you please get to the point Amber, or this guy is gonna have a full-on panic attack."
Turnign to us, her face holds an expression I don't want to see. "No, Amber tell me you have some good news." Shaking her head, she says.
"I'm sorry, Suppressing stone is tied to an individual, not to mention one this size is beyond illegal. I don't even know how could someone get such a crystal into the city."
While Amber doesn't know, I have a good picture in my mind.
Grabbing my cane, I sprint to the balcony. "Raven!"
Jumping over the edge, a fall good 4 flours onto a hard dirt road. "Thank god we're so tough these days." Getting off the ground, I sprint to a single place. "Raven wait for us!"
Spotting a volunteer on a horse, I kick him off and ride north.
.....................
Police Commissioner Sparks had it rough, he just had to demote his genius daughter all the way back to a detective, not to mention, many nobles are wanting him to push more on the criminal south.
Sighing loudly, he asks his secretary. "Is this the last work before lunch?" Getting a nod, he smiles, putting the paper on a neatly stacked paper tower. He stretches his back. "I should have lunch with my daughter."
Leaving the large skyscraper, his private limousine waits ready to take him to a restaurant. Getting in, he feels the cold steel press against his head, the limousine locks. Its dark tinted windows make it impossible to see from the outside.
Turnign his head, Commisnoers eyes go wide as he recognizes the man. "Raven....."
"Correct, I'm here to inquire on some things." Telling me that if I'm here to get revenge for not helping me tonight, I should just pull the trigger. Smiling, I push the gun against his head.
"Gunter, I need t speak with him." His eyes go wide and shake his head. "That's not possible, he's not here. He's in the-" Slamming my gun against his head, I say. "Gunters' trial was still not executed, he's in a special holding cell. In downtown Aquaria, don't think I don't know."
Swallowing his saliva, the old man looks me in the eyes. "Fine, 5 Minutes, no more, no less."
Smiling I tap at the driver, you can drive. "Y-y-yes!" Driving through the busy streets, the commissioner asks me why I want to see Gunter. "Information, he's the largest importer of goods outside of Aquaria and I need information on a certain thing."
Nodding he tells me that it has to be something really important when I'm taking such a huge risk as this one. "This car is strapped with enough semtex to make the terrorist jealous, so I would be careful about any funny ideas you might have."
"He's not lying!" Kicking the driver's seat, I tell him to stay silent and drive.
Arriving at a large station, I pull out my mask. It's scratched and all beaten up. "I haven't worn this in a long time." Putting the large bird beak on my face, we step out of the vehicle.
"Tas forces...." I whisper, there's a lot of them.
Stepping out of the car the commissioner speaks. "You get to speak with Gunter, but behind bars." Smiling, I tell them to lead the way. Putting cuffs on my hands, one of the cops tries to unmask me to the cameras.
kicking him right between the legs, he falls to the ground. Getting the guns raised at me, I joke. "The mask stays on." Seeing no harm in it since the commissioner saw me put it on, he tells everyone to let it be.
Being brought inside, I get patted down and all my things get taken. We enter a cell block. "Disable number 43!" Electrical humming disappears from the metal bars, and I'm pushed in. "Enjoy your state Mr, Raven. After you're done you can visit me in the chiefs office." Laughing, the commissioner leaves us alone.
Walking away, I see a camera in the corner. "That mask... What do you want?"
Seeing Gunter still with a missing arm sitting on a bench, I tell him that I want to know who bought a large suppressing stone. Starting to laugh, he holds his head. "This is so you! Who else would break in here just to ask such a dumb question!"
"I would, and I will tell you why. You sold a huge orange suspending crystal, that same crystal was shot at Edward causing him to be unresponsive. Your younger brother is gonna die."
Looking at me as if I was crazy, he tells me that he doesn't give a shit.
"I know, but I do, so please." Swallowing my pride I first get on one knee and then on the other, laying down low, I beg Gunter to tell me who bought it.
"You're kidding me..... You? Out of all people bow to me?! What did they put into my food."
"They put nothing, Gunter, I just really need to know. So please, tell me." NOT saying anything he begins to rub the back of his head like Edward always does.
"Fine! Under neath my chair in the office, inside the warehouse, one of the metal sheets is loosely attached it holds my accountant book. I don't remember exactly who bought it, but you will definitely find it there!"
Now telling me to leave, I ask him if he wants to come along. "No... I don't." Stopping dead in my tracks, I turn to Gunter and ask him what the hell does he mean he doesn't want to?!
"I didn't want to be a criminal in the first place, but before I knew it I got addicted to the power, I think I'm gonna stay here and let myself be transported to an official prison.
"No! Wait a second! Who are you?! The real Gunter wouldn't blink twice about escaping!"
Waving his hand he tells me that he told me, but he doesn't believe I can get out as not even his brutal strength could get him out. "See?" Punching the armored camera it even barely budgeted.
Sighing, sit down and throw my mask at the camera covering it.
"What are you- EW! What the hell is wrong with you?!" Seeing me dig in the back of my mouth, I catch a small piece of see-through duct tape to which string is attached. Pulling it all out, I grab the small metal tools at the end.
Unlocking my handcuffs, I go into a corner, Jumping up, I hid myself up in the corner.
As Gunter looks at me I shake my head to make him look somewhere else.
"Disable number 43!" As the bars go into the ground, a single guard walks in. "Mike! One is missing!" Yelling to the other guy outside, I realize that I have to act.
Jumping down on him, I grab his baton and throw it at the other guard. Getting hit in the face, I close the distance before he can yell and dig my knee into his face.
"See? It's not that hard." Of course, the alarm rings and the place goes into lockdown.
"Now the real fun begins."
